...when clicking to download a pdf file, there came a 1st dialog box asking whether to save/save as/cancel/open;
if click on open, then a dialog box "Encrypted Document" asks for password.
if click on save, then the well saved pdf file can be normaly opened whithout any password- nor encryption- warning.
I installed Panzerkopf forum member's "gv.gz" (see link here after)

The problem is:A4 format postscript files as even pdf file are not completely displayed = part of the documents header is not displayed (about 20mm are missing); moreover printing a .ps or .pdf file from the postscript viewer do not print the full page: also a part of the header is «lost».

I could reproduce this on puppy 4.20 Xtreme v1.0 by replacing the existing gv by Panzerkopf's gv. And vice-versa.

I then believe that the Panzerkopf's gv.gz file could have been integrated to Lupq-511, couldn't it?

I also tried to use the gv -options (managing to recenter or modify the page configuration) from the command line without success.

So I believe that this gv question not to be fully fixed.

Would you mind consider this?
Thanks in advance.

I have a question about this pet "remasterpup2-100120".
Is the one included in LUPQ-511 or is Barry's original one ?

The "remasterpup2-100120" Is this one included in LUPQ-511 and was once in the woof until 13 september 2010.
Barry recently add some modification and now in Wary-102.

Code:

#100913 simplified puppy filenames. see variables in /etc/DISTRO_SPECS.
#100916 no longer have DISTRO_DEVXSFS in /etc/DISTRO_SPECS.(it was only there briefly)
#101020 no longer have /etc/modprobe.conf.
#101107 bug fix from zygo.

Both may works with no problem unless you use simplified puppy filenames._________________Downloads for Puppy Linux http://shino.pos.to/linux/downloads.htmlLast edited by shinobar on Thu 16 Dec 2010, 19:20; edited 1 time in total

Thanks Shinobar.
One more question about LUPQ-511.
Grub4dos included in liveCD when it boots what version is ?
If i remaster my liveCD can G4D be replaced with your last version- "grub4dos-0.4.4.v1.6.3" ?
Thanks in advance .

...The problem is:

I believe I got the explanation to fix this:
/usr/bin/gv is a script containing:

To get the complete A4 document, change the script code to tell ps2pdf to format output to A4

Great, Charlie.
Isn't there a way to set the ps2pdf default option somewhere in a configuration file?
Or we can make a wrapper of the ps2pdf...

EDIT: Found
Insert next line in /etc/profile around line 98(after LANG is set).

Code:

[ "${LANG:2:3}" != "_US" ] && export GS_OPTIONS="-sPAPERSIZE=a4"

Exit to prompt and xwin, or reboot PC. (Restart X is not enough to apply the change.)_________________Downloads for Puppy Linux http://shino.pos.to/linux/downloads.htmlLast edited by shinobar on Sat 01 Jan 2011, 10:29; edited 1 time in total

Shinobar. No need to suggest anything, I use Lupu -250 instead that one have 1024 x 768 and 511 only 1024x600 on my Acer.

But I would very much appreciate some suggestion how I can get
Puppy Studio to boot. I use your safe boot suggestion for 520 and that booted it but it totally fail on Studio and it is the third iso I test so something is odd with it. I guess it has to do with the low latency thing. Maybe I have chosen the wrong iso that needs a real CPU and not an Atom N270 that one maybe can not do what the iso ask it to.

Surprise, lupu511 boots but LupQ-511 boots not.

Can one borrow something from 511 that makes lupq boot?

Acer D250 frugal install NTFS HDD Atom n270 CPU

lup520 needs acpi=off to boot but then does not shut down properly.
Fluppy and Snow Puppy both boots always and shut down properly too.

Can one borrow that ability from them and use in lupq?_________________I use Google Search on Puppy Forum
not an ideal solution though

I've been testing LupQ and hadn't got any problems. Except for this: it doesn't recognize my lupusave file. At the moment, I haven't got a computer on my own, so I'm using a live CD and a flash drive. It would be nice to be able to show my portable system to my friends who don't speak English (you know, they say 'if it's only in English then it's not worth'), but unfortunately I had this issue with the lupusave file. I wonder what I'm doing wrong. _________________A beginner Puppy Linux user

LupQ reads 'lupqsave.?fs' where '?' can be 2-4.
Try with a copy of your lupusave as lupqsave.

But you are better to make new lupqsave.
Then click the old lupusave to mount.
You can copy some files you want from the old lupusave._________________Downloads for Puppy Linux http://shino.pos.to/linux/downloads.html
